As at this moment, the ground and air troops of the Operation Thunder Strike (OPTS) are still carrying out aggressive fighting patrols in the Gadani general area up to the boundaries with neighboring Niger State.

The names of those kidnapped will be made public as soon as security agencies provide subsequent operational feedback.

The government has sent condolences to their families and assured the communities in the Gwagwada general area of the commitment of government and security to their plight.
